Have nothing to do with the
fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. --- Ephesians 5:11

It is a well documented fact that the
religion of Hubbard was Satanism. Hubbard's mentor was, in fact, the infamous
English black magician Aleister Crowley. Hubbard reportedly discovered Crowley's
works as a teenager on a trip to the Library of Congress with his mother.

Thereafter, he was fascinated by Crowley's
"Magick," and Crowley became Hubbard's mentor, a relationship that would last
until Crowley's death in 1947. In one of his later lectures, Hubbard would refer
to Crowley as "my good friend." [Miller, p. 135]

Crowley's most famous work was called The
Book of the Law in which he expressed his philosophy of life: "Do what thou wilt
shall be the whole of the Law." It is a philosophy Hubbard was to live by
throughout his life.

Crowley wrote, in The Book of the Law:

We have nothing with the
outcast and the unfit; let them die in their misery. Compassion is the vice of
Kings; stamp down the wretched and the weak; this is the law of the strong;
this is our law and the joy of the world.

I am of the snake that giveth Knowledge
and Delight, and stir the hearts of men with drunkenness. To worship me take
wine and strange drugs.... They shall not harm ye at all. It is a lie, this
folly against self.... Be strong, Oh man! Lust, enjoy all things of sense and
rapture ... the kings of the earth shall be kings forever; the slaves shall
serve.

Them that seek to entrap thee, to
overthrow thee, them attack without pity or quarter, and destroy them utterly.

I am unique and conqueror. I am not of
the slaves that perish. Be they damned and dead! Amen. [Corydon, p. 49]

Many of Crowley's beliefs have been
incorporated into Scientology®, especially in the secret upper levels of
Scientology®, called the "OT levels."

Following in Crowley's footsteps, Hubbard
adopted some of the practices of the black magician, including the use of drugs
and the use of affirmations.

According to Hubbard's son, his father
regularly used illegal drugs including amphetamines, barbiturates and
hallucinogens including cocaine, peyote and mescaline. [Corydon, p. 53]

Among the many affirmations that Hubbard
was known to have used was the following:

All men shall be my slaves! All
women shall succumb to my charms! All mankind shall grovel at my feet and not
know why! [Corydon, p. 53]

After being discharged from the Navy in
December of 1945, Hubbard did not head for home, where his wife and two small
children were living in Bremerton, Washington. He instead headed directly for a
house in Pasadena, California, where an eclectic assortment of people lived
including one Jack Parsons, the leader of a satanic organization called the Ordo
Templis Orientis. That was the U.S. name for the organization headed in England
by Crowley.

Parsons wrote to Crowley about Hubbard:

About three months ago I met
Ron ... a writer and explorer of whom I had known for some time. He is a
gentleman; he has red hair, green eyes, is honest and intelligent, and we have
become great friends.

Although Ron has no formal training in
magick, he has an extraordinary amount of experience and understanding in the
field. From some of his experiences I deduce that he is in direct touch with
some higher intelligence, possibly his guardian angel.

Ron appears to have some sort of highly
developed astral vision. He described his angel as a beautiful winged woman
with red hair, whom he calls the Empress, and who has guided him through his
life, and saved him many times.

We are pooling our resources in a
partnership which will act as a limited company to control our business
ventures.

I need a magical partner. I have many
experiments in mind.... [Corydon, p. 255]

Hubbard and Parsons struck up an occult
partnership, the result of which was a series of rituals they carried out with
the objective of producing a "moonchild," an incarnation of "Babylon" in an
unborn child. A woman in the house was chosen to be the mother of this satanic
child.

In order to obtain a woman
prepared to bear this magical child, Parsons and Hubbard engaged in eleven
days of rituals.

All this seemed to achieve its desired
result and, on January 18th, Parsons found the girl who was prepared to become
the mother of Babalon, and to go through the required incantation rituals.
During these rituals, which took place on the first three days of March 1946,
Parsons was High Priest and had sexual intercourse with the girl, while
Hubbard who was present acted as skryer, seer, or clairvoyant and described
what was supposed to be happening on the astral plane. [Corydon, p. 256]

Parsons wrote to Crowley:

I am under command of extreme
secrecy. I have had the most devastating experience of my life between
February second and March fourth. I believe it was the result of the ninth
degree working with the girl.... I have been in direct touch with the One who
is most Holy and Beautiful as mentioned in the Book of the Law. First
instructions were received direct through Ron, the Seer. I have followed them
to the letter. There was a desire for incarnation. I am to act as instructor
guardian guide for nine months, then it will be loosed upon the world. That's
all I can say for now.... [Corydon, p. 257]

Crowley remained unimpressed. He wrote
to one of his associates:

Apparently Parsons and Hubbard
or somebody is producing a moonchild. I get fairly frantic when I contemplate
the idiocy of these louts. [Corydon, p. 257]

Later, Hubbard was to reveal some of his
occult beliefs to his son in a conversation documented by L. Ron Hubbard, Jr.:

We were in Philadelphia. It was
November 1952.

Every night in the hotel, in preparation
for the next day's lecture, he'd pace the floor, exhilarated by this or that
passage from Aleister Crowley's writings.

Just a month before, he had been in
London, where he had finally been able to quench his thirst; to fill his cup
with the true, raw, naked power of the magick. The lust of centuries at his
very fingertips.

To stroke and taste the environs of the
Great Beast, to fondle Crowley's books, papers, and memorabilia had filled him
with pure ecstasy!

In London he had acquired, at last, the
final keys; enabling him to take his place upon the "Throne of the Beast," to
which he firmly believed himself to be the rightful heir.

"The books and contents to be kept
forever secret," he says. "To reveal them will cause you instant insanity; rip
your mind apart; destroy you," he says.

"Secrets, techniques and powers I alone
have conquered and harnessed. I alone have refined, improved on, applied my
engineering principles to. Science and logic. The keys! My keys to the doorway
of the Magick, my magick! The power!"

"I've made the Magick really work," he
says. "No more foolish rituals. I've stripped the Magick to basics -- access
without liability."

"Sex by will," he says. "Love by will --
no caring and no sharing -- no feelings. None," he says. "Love reversed," he
says. "Love isn't sex. Love is no good; puts you at effect. Sex is the route
to power," he says. "Scarlet women! They are the secret to the doorway. Use
and consume. Feast. Drink the power through them. Waste and discard them."

"Scarlet?" I ask.

"Yes Scarlet: the blood of their bodies,
the blood of their souls," he says.

"Release your will from bondage. Bend
their bodies; bend their minds; bend their wills; beat back the past. The
present is all there is. No consequences and no guilt. Nothing is wrong in the
present. The will is free -- totally free; no feelings; no effort; pure
thought -- separated. The Will postulating the Will," he says.

"Will, Sex, Love, Blood, Door, Power,
Will. Logical," he says.

"The doorway of Plenty. The Great Door
of the Great Beast." [Corydon, p. 307]

It is possible that Hubbard not only
believed in Satan -- he believed he was Satan!

According to Ron (Hubbard) Jr.,
his father considered himself to be the one "who came after"; that he was
Crowley's successor; that he had taken on the mantle of the "Great Beast." He
told him that Scientology® actually began on December the 1st, 1947. This was
the day Aleister Crowley died. [Corydon, p. 50]

This is the foundation of Scientology®,
the "Road to Total Freedom"!
